Hi,
I'm a newbie. The grass season is here and I have been remiss in getting ready.
At the end of last mowing season, I was finishing my last mowing for the year (5 acres)
and noticed a change in engine speed. I never really gave it that much thought UNTIL
I went to put it at idle and could not. It was if I had lost linkage or something. It was
dark and I told myself I would get to it. Well I didn't.
Engine starts fine, but goes to full throttle immediately.
The Control lever works fine and it operates linkages under Carb.
It will also CLOSE the choke when put in Start Posit.
However, lever has NO effect on engine speed.
Using the manual, I compared parts and it looks like everything is in place.
The Governor moves freely and it has it's 2 springs which are hard to see.
Just seems like something is missing. Any ideas or help would be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks.
